CSV files, R script and stimuli: writing process data of typed intransitive, monotransitive and ditransitive sentences by 90 healthy adults

Writing process data of 90 healthy elderly (50 - 90 years) were obtained. Each of them completed a typed sentence production task that consisted of 40 trials. Time on task, production time, and pause times before sentences, between words and within words were logged with a keystroke logging tool (ScriptLog). The data were used to examine the influences of normal ageing and verb transitivity on sentence production. The underlying aim was to provide a foundation for further research on sentence production in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

This data set contains the CSV files that were used for the analyses and the corresponding R script. Note that the files contain the data before data reduction (still containing, e.g., participants that were eventually not included in the analyses, or sentences with errors); the R script includes the necessary code for data reduction. This data set also contains the stimuli that were used in the experiment (a subset of images from the Open Linguistic Picture Database; Paesen & Meulemans, 2020).

The paper is currently under review. The data will be available as soon as it is accepted for publication.
